I Could Tell You Stories by Patricia Hampl

5.0

Sublime. Hampl explores memory, identity, and the stories we tell about our lives. She writes about her own life, but also about Anne Frank, Hemingway, Sylvia Plath, Czeslaw Milosz, her elderly Czech tutor, St. Augustine, and my favorite, Edith Stein. A rich, important book - which also delves deeply into 20th century history, especially WWII. Can't wait to read more of her stuff.
